Refer to the revegeta- <br /> <br /> tion program later in this Exhibit E for details. <br /> Overburden and soil removal and storage are discussed in <br /> Exhibit D. The non-soil overburden stored for each stage of mining <br /> will be returned to the mined area when the reclamation phase starts. <br /> It will be used as backfill and slope fill material. Soils will be <br /> <br /> used to cover ar eas to be revegetated to a depth of at least six <br />' inches, as long as soil materials last. <br />This is a dry, open-pit operation. There is no water except <br />that from snow and rain that has fallen directly into the pit. <br />Area outside of the affected land will not be affected in any <br />i , foreseeable way by slides, runoff or other functions of the mining <br />or reclamation operation. <br />All land area of the affected land will be stabilized through <br />revegetation and grading so as to control erosion and attendant air <br />and water pollution. <br />' The operator has agreed with the land and mineral owners to <br />revegetate in a manner compatible with present vegetation, <br /> <br />' 14 <br />
